NORMAN, Okla. - Oklahoma handed Texas Tech a 15-11, 15-7, 19-17 loss Friday evening in Norman, Okla. The match signalled the end of the regular season for Texas Tech who finishes at 10-10 in Big 12 play and 23-11 overall. Oklahoma improved to 12-7 in the Big 12 and 18-12 overall.

Tech senior middle blocker Brande Brown broke the school's single season kills record with her 18-kill performance against the Sooners.
